Abstract (en)

The present invention is an apparatus for guiding the edge of a free-falling curtain. The apparatus includes first and second slides positioned at the top of the curtain which merge. An edge guide (62) is positioned at the point where the slides merge. A lubricating liquid is provided to each slide surface which flows down each slide and the edge guide (62) to guide the edge of the free-falling curtain. The present invention allows time for surfactant in the lubricating liquid time to diffuse to the surface and promotes dampening of disturbances in the lubricating liquid. <IMAGE>
